The use of a quartz movement enabled the easy enjoyment of complicated functions while keeping the price, including maintenance costs, affordable.Shellman introduced the world's first super-complication watch with a quartz movement. The company developed the world's first "practical super-complicated high-grade watch" and named this masterpiece the "Grand Complication." Shellman chose to use a quartz movement in the Shellman Grand Complication to cater to dedicated watch enthusiasts. This movement not only offers convenience but also maintains quality comparable to mechanical watches, all at an affordable price. The Shellman Grand Complication features four primary intricate functions: a minute repeater, a perpetual calendar, a split-second chronograph, and a moon phase. Shellman's meticulously planned and researched quartz movement provides a rich experience that captures the essence of a high-grade watch. The Shellman Grand Complication's minute repeater has a complex mechanism that audibly indicates the hours and minutes with distinct chimes. By synthesizing three frequencies, it accurately replicates the sound of a mechanical watch. A specially commissioned case ensures the sound closely resembles that of a mechanical repeater. In addition to its stopwatch function, the Shellman Grand Complication has a time-checking function using a single hand, allowing multiple checks per reading. Furthermore, this timepiece is equipped with a 60-minute and 12-hour cumulative meter and a specially designed 1/4 second step motor for the chronograph's second hand. This setup aims to replicate a movement reminiscent of a mechanical watch. Additionally, the Shellman Grand Complication includes a moon phase disk that aligns with the 29.5-day lunar cycle. This disk meticulously reproduces the texture of the most prized antique masterpieces by using a method that applies gold leaf rather than printing. In 2007, Shellman released the Grand Complication Premium as a higher-end model of the Classic. The Premium features include: 1) Two types of printing plates—one normal and one finer—layered to create a three-dimensional and sharp look while enhancing visibility and luxurious feel with applied indices. 2) A bezel shaped to be deeply cut from the edge of the crystal to the outer case, creating a bold and mysterious appearance with impressive light and shadow reflections. It also features a beautiful pink gold color and texture achieved through durable ion plating.3) All hands were newly designed and molded specifically for the Premium. These original parts are manufactured exclusively for Shellman and are not available to other companies.4) The guilloché decoration, inherited from pocket watches, is a sophisticated technique that engraves intricate patterns into a metal plate using a lathe. Modern technology has successfully reproduced this unique texture.In August 2023, the Shellman Grand Complication underwent a professional overhaul by Citizen, which included:・Disassembly and cleaning ・Battery replacement・Running test・Replacement of the case back gasketWe will provide the delivery note issued by Citizen, detailing the overhaul work.
